To receive notification via email regarding any new Third Party, Customer should email privacy@sonet.ioto request subscription to such notices. If Customer does not contact privacy@sonet.io with any such request, Sonet.io's posting of the name of such Third Party on its Third-Party List (available at https://www.sonet.io/info/subprocessors will be deemed to constitute notice of a new Third Party to Customer under this provision. Customer will have ten (10) calendar days to object after notice is given.

After this process, if a resolution has not been agreed to within ten (10) calendar days, Sonet.io will proceed with engaging the Third Party. If Customer's reasonable objection remains unresolved, Customer will be given the opportunity to terminate the Sonet.io Services for convenience without penalty as its sole and exclusive remedy or another such resolution as the parties may agree.

g)  Following Instructions. Sonet.io shall Process Customer Personal Data only in accordance with the documented instructions of Customer as specifically authorized by the Agreement or Processing to comply with other reasonable documented instructions provided by Controller (e.g., via email) where mutually agreed to by Processor and provided such instructions are consistent with and not in conflict with the terms of the Agreement.
